plus if i opened standard i mightve risked killing 2 purple seals
i thought they didnt for some reason
any cards can
prolly because its not likely but it is possible
id risk 2 purple seals in an immolate for the chance to get a cryptid for them
nope theyre always updating
i mean handsize in checkered is cracked
with 2 castle and rebate?
lowkey twin
fuck photo
time for rebate to go? i dont see my build changing
twin ur econ tho
are u scoring enoguh
what did u score last blind
i assume ante 3 is like what
4k?
3.2 base
5k? idk gold stake antes that much
3.2 of 1.2
erm
or
is it 1k
FUCJ
thinking about balatro outside of playing balatro makes me lose all base knowledge of balatro

ante 4 is 5k iirc
more money = more jokers
2/16 🥀
because its ante 3
take it over drivers twin
i dont need it online instantly i just need it online in time
but you have econ enough scoring and now utility for 3 other jokers
rebate and castles
with traub
vs a not online drivers that wont be here till ante 4 or 5 and by that point will probably have found other scoring
i just dont see a point in holding it besides rare block
also i like having the most money i can have
esp in high stakes
bc being greedy is nice when ur not broke
ill trust your say
i think its honestly only good for the rare block
its ur run twin do what you want :3
me personally would skip traub if im really trying to rare block for a bp bs
just tested in sandbox, pretty sure the hands are pregen
yes
i scored 6k without photo so is it greed time
GKZJLH91 checkered gs
W
i have telescope
ez
sure np
not doubting you or anything
obv has to be in shop2 bc shop1 guarantees buffoon
well if chat keeps about greed then i shall participate
it makes sense intuitively that pack1 contents should show up in pack2
can we boo this guy
and not forced to be seeded
hook was my goat he gave me additional castle scaling at the start
i dont see a licensed stuntman. im reporting you to tom cruise
you have pants. id probably ditch grimbo unless pants is really low
Geen +20, Pants +10
no need for any drastic changes. just play 2 pairs and let grimbo slowly go down
gotcha
well, not go down. but eventually in a few antes pants will be much bigger and then youll need the slot
I think I can get out of Green now
hell yeah hallu buffoon
can't do it outside blue and yellow
stm is definitely the play
BUT
hallu value
double those tarots bby
couldve easily gotten a gold sticker but i folded and got an eternal madness 😔
also yes chat i made a huge mistake and didnt copy castle thats my bad
Could be worse, I got yorick last night on anti 10
Is this a to do list?
Fuck em
and thats why we rare skip

i had to
i needed the bp
😭
now i just need ecto
and vouchers
Do you want to play PVP Balatro?
(Without the mod)
Its simple, we decide a seed, deck, time limit and stake, and we try to score the best hand possible in the first 8 antes (Restarts allowed) . Then we send screen pics of the YOU WIN!/GAME OVER screen to eachothers DM (before the time limit) and see who wins.
Be careful with the ante 24 wall, also you need more money to reroll for serpent
thats kinda fire
ngl if i see a rebate i might sell bs
lmfao
im not worried abt ante 24 rn either im worred about getting passed the next 3
past*
no blank no directors
at ante 17
this run is honestly just gone
unfortunately
Wouldn’t selling bp be better so you can find it again without showman
3 baron 1 mime is just as optimal as 2 baron 2 mime on red steel
well im way past that point now
and relying on omen globe for ecto is very fun and interactive
with no blank either
its a dead run
Yeah after I sent the message I realized how long ago it was lol
was at ante 14
all good lol
unfortunately it went nowhere
but the way this run started was like
the best set up ive ever had in a baron mime run
stuntman bull foil to the moon dna and cartomancer
😭
lasted me to ante 10
then i found baron
Crimson heart? 👀
funny thing right
crimson hit carto
after it popped
got my dna hand off
crimson hit dna
won the next hand
😭😭
i get spoiled with hand size 2 and overstock 1 vouchers by ante 4
then get fuck all for 16 antes
Oh my
Uh oh
ive been holding these for 3 antes and no voucher skip
next ante small blind
voucher skip
:)

i love my runs
im so happy
My last run I was like 90% sure I was gonna die
Cause I was barely scraping the score requirement and desperately needed palette
And the game deadass gave me planet merchant on antes 22, 23, an 24
dang
no dna?
or did u need palette through dna too
😭
I didn’t have dna
I ended up rerolling with like $3000 and happened to find dna with <$200 left on ante 24
idk like what best set up honestly is but
i like to have baron mime 3 copies antimatter ecto slots filled with rebate dna
once im past like 3k
i sell rebate for first cola i see
or showman
usually it bounces between showman cola
I do this before finding the 4th copy
You have 7 slots no?
dna
5 + ecto + antimatter
well yeah baron mime 4 copies is 6 dna 7
Yeah
5 extra hand size with dna ig is worse than the what
18 hands plus any hand vouchers
so around
20-24
based on if u take heiro
You can only hit naneinf with burglar no?
unless perkeo
Never found that on an unseeded naneinf run
but thats so
specific
yeah same
and even if i do
i want one perkeoless
i just have to be smarter
Oh have you not gotten one yet
Holy shit
they go dead around ante 20-22
Do you use any speed up mods
The runs take hours then right
I started on mobile but got it on steam just for the purpose of getting a speedup mod
usually my mobile ones take around 10 hours total bc im playing at work and finish up when hime
home
Cause i got so tired of waiting around for every red steel king to trigger
Yeah same
On vanilla
Btw
probably uh
When you pull off the crimson bean bug
30 on mobile
Do you get +5 or +10 hand size per bean disable?
I think one time I got +10 then 5 of it went away later after I bought another hand size joker?
25 ish idk i started counting around like the 20 mark so 57 might be an
overexaggeration
ngl idk how to do it
so idk
ive been going for burger runs
I do too
theres also chicot naneinf
But if I see a crimson heart I can’t resist the urge to look for a bean
You wait till the crimson heart disables a hand size joker, then exit to the main menu and come back
Basically if you had 13/13, after disabling it’ll show 13/8. And if you go to the menu and come back it’ll become 13/13
Supposedly
My game did weirder stuff sometimes, usually when I had other hand size jokers
yeah
basically this becomes 18/18 after the bean is undisabled
if you pull off the glitch on ante 8, you'll have significantly boosted scoring potential letting you use some joker space in ante 16 for a copied burglar and a bean
to get way more bean disables on average than in ante 8
and you can do the same in ante 24 and by then you're pretty much set to hit ante 39
wait
can u see same blinds again?
i never noticed
like ante 3 you see plabt
then ante 10 you see plant again
like does it reset?
after main boss blind each 8 antes
i think it's supposed to loop through all of them before showing repeats
ah
so if you see the plant early you're safe
You could get the plant again
if you cycle through all 5 showdown blinds you get repeats
Rerolling exist
No youre not
like the only case where you'd see it again is when you've seen all the other boss blinds, which means you'd have retcon
You're totally right! I must have been mistaken! Is there anyway I could assist you further?
16 vouchers in 20 antes?
Idk i got nervous
did the game really wanna feed you planet merchant lol
yep.
that's another great thing about colas into voucher skips. it guarantees at most one planet merchant in that shop
i saw
hone once
magic trick once
planet merchant twice
i took a few voucher skips
none were double tagged tho
i wish i could take planet merchant to block
tarot merchant i always take
i usually take magic trick
i think the weight is the same as tarot/planet merchant?
but the upgrade voucher doesn't hurt you
so it's just getting it out of the way for other vouchers to appear
yeah but it can end up replacing a joker
well thats not
how seeds work
yeah magic trick hurts you a bit
i just take it cause usually the roadblock for me is vouchers and not jokers
3 spectral packs in 20 antes
no ecto
never got to use 6th or seance either
before it was useless to take
so
i should learn how to use seance
i mean you can deck bloat bs cards
like ill usually take aces
and 10s
bc thats usually the things i never roll when discarding for seance
i like to keep a strength in slot
oh right strength works well with seance
ye
usually im rolling for strength fool when playing it
75% of the time it goes nowhere
but when u get it
esp with some copies
holy shit does it feel good
you get a 1/16 chance of an ecto
yeah
lowkey
i was doing a run last night
didnt care for naneinf
was playing ghost deck baron mime
till like
3 am
before sleeping
😭
i pretty much only do naneinf runs on pc
40-50 however many im on naneinf attempts
i actually have a few rares that i havent unlocked yet so it helps marginally
crush ur soul
ive gotten ante 23
but no retcon
:3
everything
but retcon
it was my closest
like i see no point intentionally discarding 5 jacks to dilute the rare pool
so i went for pb
LOL
i just go to erratic decj
deck
im ngl
oh shit
But wheres the fun
what's the unlock condition for wee again?
Oh I just realised youre an actual POKER player
yeah i am
ah
The ones I don’t have unlocked on my pc are
Win in 18 or fewer rounds
Win in 12 or fewer rounds
Play a hand that contains four 7 of clubs
Discard 5 jacks at the same time
Discover every planet card
Basically the ones that are easy to avoid unlocking
play a hand that contains four 7 of clubs
seeing double
my goat
i love seeing double
I like it for ante 8 but not for naneinf lol
yeah fair
I think it’s the joker that gives planet cards and packs for free?
Yeah
almost never take it even in gs
5 jacks is hit the road
mid af
worst xmult rare
win in 12 rounds or less is
hrm
lemme check
oh merry andy
Was it Andy?
Oh yeah
or trading
could be viable as an extra joker slot in ante 8-12
for some extra rebate value
or finding all ur shit to deckfix into the big antes
There’s 20 rare jokers and I have 2 locked rn
if u unlock andy u force wee unlock
so
if andy means that much to you for runs then sure
but honestly
Unlocking wee would add about 5.5% extra time to find blueprint/brainstorm/baron
Yeah
and mime
There’s a lot more uncommons though
true
and obv
better weight
ive spent 500 rolls looking for a single mime tho
so

Damn
I think most of my runs I’ve managed to find mime or baron early enough to survive
never foundba mime
mine are usually late i never know why
I’ve had plenty where I’m using like 3 copy jokers on mime with a bunch of steel and terrible Econ
like usually coming out of ante 8 into 9-10
And about to die and baron shows up last minute
theyre like "yeah so you deckfixed for kings so we can give it to you... i guess..."
yeah lowkey
i just do photo chad
and wait for baron
sell photo for baron
then look for mime
if its that bad
last me to ante 12 i think
I either do photochad or scary face/arrowhead with quads
And occasionally just straight up high card with red steel kings and no baron or mime
lvl 20 hc is useless
Me ending up with lvl 100+ hc anyway on every run 😂
i find my flush five builds to be really easy to transition
bc im alr playing red seal kings
When I see a Pluto for $1 in the shop I just can’t resist
so all i need is some chariot and devil
I actually got saved by overleveled hc on my run today
The one where I was being fed planet merchants
xd
I think like ante 22 or so I had to use a glass card to get barely over
thats the worst
playing a glass just hoping it scrapes by
and knowing if u played a non glass you wouldve lost
😭
I had to dna a gold card on ante 25 cause I had basically no money
cooked
And got hella lucky finding an early burglar ante 26 and finding serpent with <250 to start the ante
ez
im ngl
sometimes i reroll like
$50 to find serpent
for money
😭
i remember once i did it on like
the one that draws cards face down after hand
useless for hc
i rolled it cuz i was like fuck it i want money
hit serpent first try
1st or 2nd lvl discard voucher too not sure
Like you have to wait to cycle through the boss blinds again
wont matter if i got $5k
Lmao
i usually have around
3k ante 29
fuck
2p
fuck
20
idk why i didnt just edit but whatever
bc i keep antimatter/ecto slot for rebate always
there'll be some bad runs that i have like
800 ante 22
😭
genuienly gg
me rn in this run
Btw do you use savescumming for ectoplasm
bro i do it for like everything im ngl
if i fuck up
alt f4
if i play a bad hand
alt f4
What does alt f4 do again
closes the game
Oh
force closes instantly
You can just go to the main menu
Do you know when exactly the game saves
From my understanding it saves after playing hands, discards, shop rerolls, booster packs?
my 2000 hours of hardcore minecraft taught me to instant pause
lol
I have my game on 16x speed and slow it down to 2x whenever I use ecto
Probably could do 4x but if I’m changing the speed anyway might as well be safe
What’s handy
its just like a qol like
Mod?
like keyboard integration
so u can drop hands with like space
instead of right click
What does right click do
right clicking on selected card(s) deselects it
so u dont have to go thru each one clicking them
lol
also handy has like a hover select
Like deselects all of them?
if u hold down left click u can just hover cards and itll select without having to click again
yeah
Oh convenient
like if u select 5 cards
hit right click
it quick deselects all
instead of having to manually click each one
im a fast player
so i maximize my handy like keybinds
Lowkey fuck it I’m gonna try another naneinf run
Maybe I’ll just die early
Hitting a streak of 4 would be nice
streak is crazy
Hmmmmmm
Foil skip
tempting
So tempting
Lowkey I’m gonna give in to the temptation
dont tell me...
Hand size voucher ante 1 too
Hopefully it lasts long enough to recover Econ
real
It lasted 2 rounds 😓
i only do it on small blind ante 1 if i dont get out in 1
bc like
how tf do i get that shit draws on PLASMA
where a 2 pair wins small and big blind
😭
Damn
watching roffle push ante 39 rn
Omen globe ante 4 👀
shit voucher
never does anything for me
hate it
makes death and hanged less likely
i might stop taking it
I get most of tarot cards from the shop
same
but tarot packs are nice to like
not have to risk discards
and getting shit draws
I think my run is saved
baron mime triple bp?
xd
far
fair
i mean
2nd rebate could
go hard
ngl
once midas gives its use
what is more useful?
four fingers or shortcut
It was swash over sock...
Gg I somehow managed to throw the run
lol
Got an early baron and didn’t draw enough of my kings to survive
98550/105000 feels bad
rip
fair
just more scoring thru onyx sock csharp
but yeah
the safety over scoring there
is prolly better
four fingers bc im never actually playing straights
hit mail
didnt keep?
i do
u sold mail?
great, how does it feel to get shit draws
pairslop with underlying straights with runner >
i send the screen shot for you to know that nivisble hit mail

np
the negative one?
no the copied one 😭
im joking
im just blind
lowkey
literally didnt register that it was rebate
@pearl void triple copy baron or 2 baron 1 mime?
isnt it usually 1:1 favoring baron
so 1 copy is baron
2 is 1 baron 1 mime
3 is 2 baron 1 mime?
steels are +1 to baron, golds are +2 to baron
so do 2b1m i guess
always photo
always copy your xmult especially with retriggers or high values
like high flat mult
or copying a really high xmult scaling joker over a +mult
u could also do 1 chad 1 photo
idk i dont go photochad enough to know
ohhh
im using baron mime logic
oki ty
3 photo 1 chad = (2^3) ^3 = 2^9
2 photo 2 chad = (2^2) ^5 = 2^10
1 photo 3 chad = (2^1) ^7 = 2^7
1 copy each is best
^
thanks
could hit the rock jack go well?
This is a must have for bloodstone and lucky cat but not sure what to sell… maybe hanging chad?
cat
on the long term its just worse
then make a bad decision
We ride or die together
imagine it gets 10x at best, thas worse than what chad gives
It’s past 10x now
What am I even supposed to take here
too much money for wraith
too early for ecto
black hole maybe
soul maybe
i would burn the scholar for the soul card
if you're committed to a face card build
60% to pull a trib, canio, or chicot to make your life easier
yorick would also be great given you have 4 discards
It gave me trib
Hella late but 2 baron 1 mime
Holy fuck I just threw a run by missing the dna
Forgot to move the dna to copy it. Now I’m sitting here just short of the scoring limit on a run that was basically guaranteed naneinf (had all vouchers and jokers, decent money)
gg
I think being on a call with a friend might’ve distracted me 😂
Yeah
I think the only way it could have failed was from not finding a burglar all the way until ante 32
Luck is mostly just a function of how much money you have
true
Tbf I did get lucky with vouchers
But also didn’t find a voucher tag (notice the 6 double tags)
Did you reroll all your money away
i couldnt get any
i had to score
😭
i had to pivot to steel ante 20
or i die
gold wasnt cutting it close
that was an 8 hand red seal steel
and it was still short
My Econ wasn’t as great cause it was a run where I found mime first
So I had all steel till like ante 15 ish
yeah
Then I found baron and converted as much to gold as I could
Before having to convert back
i like playing for luckys early for that reason
Man, why did I have to forget the dna 😂
Sitting there scoring e66 on an e68 requirement feels so bad
then you play your last final hands
watching the score go up by a whopping 0
bc the numbers are so big
😭
Yeah pretty much
so heart breaking
I do wonder tho
My score wasn’t changing at all
I wonder if I did actually copy the dna with only my brainstorms but happened to throw the next hand
Or smth like that
I was lowkey just going through the motions and looked at my score and was like why is this only e66
😭
Would’ve been a lot more annoyed if this was my streak breaking run lol
OMGOGMGOGKGKGIGKG
THAT'S A NAT NEGATIVE BIG MIKE I GOT FROM A BOOSTER PACK
OOOOOH
!!!!
got the temeprizz from superposition
too bad this is a run for invis
probably weirdest run i ever had thanks to erratic deck but it worked
Currently, I have almost a full deck of heart base edition kings with a red seal, is it worth changing the bloodstone for the baron and try to change my kings in steel /polychrome?
(I have no hand size upgrades)
What do I do Bruh...
Bro what is sock
sock and buskin
sock and buskin??
the two faces one
Right, thanks ya'll
def take gift card here we need temperance value
well it alrrady died probably so
i’d think smiley goes considering it’s plasma no?
well now that i see its plasma
absolutely
just because it's plasma doesnt mean chips are better.
with stacking xmult, chips sources are weaker
smiley being +5 at the start of the xmult chain is a lot more than scary's +30
but theyre both not doing much
idk i should never give advice ever probably 😭
maybe
That was a little late, sold Sock already 
every time i do someone swoops in to give better advice which i absolutely agree with 🐈🔥
i usually use balatro score calculator
is that cheating maybe but i want to give accurate results
no
it's not information you don't have access to, it's just information that would be annoying to calculate
fair
judging by how bad i am at making plasma deck decisions maybe its good that i left it for last
Literally trying to learn it as of now, one of my last three decks remaining for all stakes...
halfway through nebula rn, plasma will be the absolute final boss
Plasma just works so different. I spent all this time learning the game and then Plasma comes along and screws over everything I thought I knew
plasma: 5 card hand beats ante 1 full stop. high flush or straight beats ante 2 small blind. you have that long to get to interest cap, pick up a useful joker and pick a directoin
well yup thats why i left it for last, so i dont have to readjust for the normal gameplay after its over
though now that i think about it i actually will have to if i want c++
2 pairs os first 2 rounds, flushes can os first 4 rounds
after that you can limp along for a good bit, so that's what makes it frustrating
ignore buffoon packs a1
high 2 pair. it's either 10s/9s or 8s/9s that score exactly 900
I wanna nanInf with Plasma though, couldn't do that yet...
easy enough to draw of course
prioritize
chips
retriggers
money
planets
2p
im aware
I have the chance to buy back Socks, did we get to a definite conclusion about what's better? 🤣
naninf is a different approach than high stake plasma. mostly you want econ!!!, deckfixing towards kings (perferably a red seal). you want a copy joker by ante 8. it's pretty easy to beat ante 8 without scoring jokers, so all jokers can be deckfixing/econ until then
photochad or photophotochad is ok for another few antes, after that like 3x baron is enough to ante 15. find mime b/c it'll be needed for score after. build up a few $thousand for later
needed vouchers by then are retcon and antimatter. overstock and other vouchers pretty needed
unless perkeo. then do whatever you want, it'll naninf eventually (cryptid)
Thanks for the advice, any thoughts on my latest screenshot?
sock is squaring your score, of course it's better. what hand/level?
Better than what?...
smiley isn't pulling his weight now
Gotchu
unlock stuntman if you haven't (100mill score). if you get that, that's first 5ish antes speedrun
(30k per hand)
i liked my nanlet pasta better
#🕹・game-discussion message
ya, that's fine advice and more concise
maybe a bit much crt shader there? holymoly
like you're projecting the game onto a basketball
IM soo cooked, had a great run until i accidentally used hex
I had photo, brainstrom, negative scary, negative econ, showman, and socks
what do i even do now
I think it might be ggs
roled a bit
idol hits king of diamonds
so im still cooked
also no more stencil
there might be a chance
could this score?
did it score
idk, im punching random numbers in my calculator
im gonna run it (idol hits king of diamonds)
noo way
altough im just stuck praying to idol rn
thats acc insane bro
im actually praying idol
thanks
Idol gaming
accidental hex tho
thats what brought me here
im cooked
didnt pray hard enough
unless
is this my best hand? im just going to runit
ggs
👀
crazy
Unfortunately run died immediately after because I didn’t draw enough non-spade face cards (boss was the goad)
i dont think im ever paying my student loans
